What Kind of Ionic Air Purifier is Best: Ions Only or with HEPA & Carbon Filters?

Ionic air purifiers have received a lot of good reviews simply because the majority of them do a good job of reducing particles in the air, reducing odors, killing germs, working as an air freshener, and most of them now release only OH- hydroxyl or superoxide ions, not ozone. Now, many of these negative ion air purifiers use only ions and have no HEPA or carbon filters, which they advertise as being the best way to go because there are no filters to replace, cheaper, less maintenance, etc. That all sounds really good, right? Sure, they do work pretty well and it does keep costs down with no filters to replace.
 
Some ionic air cleaners, however, do have HEPA, activated carbon filters or both. So the question that was posed to us is ‘which is really the best type of ionic air filter to buy—with or without HEPA & carbon filters?’ The answer to that is very simple: it depends on how much and what type of pollutants you’re dealing with, and whether ‘best’ for you means having the cleanest air or best for your wallet only.
 
As stated above, ionizer air cleaners are great for reducing particles, odors, killing germs and freshening the air. That said, they really don’t remove anything from the air, except where the ions cause chemical pollutants to disintegrate into water and CO2. The ions cause smaller particles to clump together, which makes them heavier and they fall out of the air easier, but then they’re down on the floor again to be picked up by air flow in your home—and maybe they’ll be caught by the A/C filter, maybe not. So if you want noticeably cleaner, fresher air, don't have severe allergies or lots of pollutants, and don’t have a lot to spend, you can usually get by with a good ionizer air purifier.
 
But, if you can spend just a little more, buying an ionic HEPA air purifier or better yet, one with ions, HEPA and carbon, that air cleaner will do everything the ionizer air filter will do, but also remove over 99% of the pollutants in the air. Just depends on what’s more important to you—how clean the air is or the cost.
